COVID-19 Update: All events postponed through April 15, 2020
Dear Friends and Members of the Resonance Works Family,
The health and safety of our patrons, guest artists, musicians, and staff is of paramount importance to us, and our board has been deep in discussions for the past several days about how to proceed in the face of the current pandemic. In the best interest of everyone involved, we have made the difficult decision to postpone all events through April 15th. This includes:
...of dark and bright performances next weekend, March 21 & 22
Verdi by Vegetables fundraiser on April 4th
Resonance Chamber Series: March of the Women event on April 14th
We are deeply saddened not to be able to share these unique musical experiences with you over the next month. We anticipate rescheduling all three events, and will announce dates as soon as we are able. In the face of this global crisis, we are also exploring creative ways that we can continue to share music with you at a time when we all need its power, healing, and inspiration more than ever.
At present, we are proceeding with our May production of Verdi’s Rigoletto as scheduled, conditions permitting, with performances on May 15 & 17. We hope you will join us for Verdi’s dramatic and heartbreaking masterpiece in a more intimate setting than it has ever been presented in Pittsburgh, and with a magnificent cast of emerging opera artists.
Ticket holders for all postponed events have the following options:
Retain your ticket as we explore future dates for these events
Exchange your tickets for an upcoming performance
Donate the value of your ticket as a much-needed tax-deductible gift to Resonance Works
Request that the purchase price be fully refunded (via original method of payment)
Please email us at info@resworks.org at your convenience to arrange for the disposition of your tickets.
We are additionally distraught at the significant financial burden this crisis is having on artists, many of whom have seen significant portions of their income evaporate in the past several days. With our limited resources, we are working to mitigate the impact of our postponements on our artists. If you would like to help, please consider making a tax-deductible donation.
You are all precious to us. Please take extra care of yourselves and your loved ones in the coming weeks, and continue to check the websites for the World Health Organization (WHO), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the PA Department of Health, and the Allegheny County Health Department for the latest information and recommendations on stopping the spread of COVID-19.
We look forward to sharing performances with you again very soon.
Warmest Regards,
Maria Sensi Sellner
Artistic & General Director
